How to Break a Habit

There are some things you just do. Reach for the cookies at 3 o'clock. Bite your nails down to the quick. Wait until the last minute to make a hair appointment (when they're all booked up, again). You hate these habits, hate feeling trapped by them. But no matter how frustrated you get, you can't seem to stop. Why? The answer lies in your approach to breaking them. These automated actions exert considerable control over our behaviors and routines, so it can take more than good intentions to set yourself free.
